MISS COCHRAN RETIRES.
DISORDERS EXPERIENCED.
BUCHAREST, Oct. 20. Miss Cochran has withdrawn from the race owing to the landing gear of her machine being out of order. She landed here after a fourth attempt. Miss Cochran encountered much bad weather. The stabiliser froze and refused to act. This, with other minor disorders, kept Wesley Smith occupied to such an extent that she piloted the machine for two-thirds of the journey.
